SOME MONEY STILL LEFT.
The Interstate Commission Hampered
for Clerical Force.

The secretary OF the interstate commerce
commission Gays the published statement
that the interstate commerce commission
has exhausted its appropriation and is now
running in expectation Of a deficiency bill
Is Incorrect. II is true that the entire ex-
penses Of the commission, including salary
OF commissioners, secretary, and clerks,
the fitting up Of the commissions quarters,
the purchase OF furniture, and the cost OF
printing and stenographic work, come out
OF the appropriation OF $4,000 for Afteen
months beginning April l. 1857, but the ap-
propilation has been carefully husbanded,
and the accounts In the secretary's Office
show that II the present scale is not ox-
ceeded there will be small balance at the
end OF the present fiscal year.
II is fact, however, that the work OF
the commissioners In the matter OF hand
ling the schedules, contracts, and other pa.
pers required TO be filled, and with respect
to the statistical work generally, which is
contemplated by the interstate commerce
act is very seriously hampered by the lack
OF adequate clerical force.

INC LOCAL Assemblies STATE Ihsir
Grounds of Complaint.
II would seem that the feeling OF indig-
nation entertained by the union men at the
effort OF certain ofllcehoders to place them
In q false position IN regard to f. E. Jack
son, the Democratic candidate for governor
Of the state OF Maryland, Is becoming very
unanimous among the laboring men. That
the same feeling prevails In all the local as
semblies is shown from the resolutions
adopted at meetings held last night.
Resoired, By .Plasterers Assembly 1911 K. of

and a few officeholders to represent the work.

indorse the action of the meetings at Edel's aud

ResOired, That we denounce the utterances
Of those persons concerned in the SO called

false In every particular and beneath our con.

Money Brokers Leave the City Until
After Election.

AtteT EiecttOus
NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-The fact that to-
morrow is holiday induced number OF
brokers to leave the city until Wednesday,
and the volume Of business to-day was
smaller than usual Of late. Fluctuations
also were, as a general thing, of small
significance, and little feature of interest
was developed during the session. The
depression OF Saturday still had some effect
In the early trading, but the demand for
stocks fully equaled the supply, and an
improvement which was somewhat OF sur
prise to the bears took place. The specula-
tion was confined to few stocks only, and
in,the Vanderbilt's alone was'there anything
OF importance.
Free realizations In the last hour wiped
out most of the gains, and the days trans.
actions were Of little Significance except In
the one group OF stocks mentioned. The
opening was fairly active, but heavy to
weak at declines from Saturdays final
figures OF from to .. The list was strong,
however, and the losses OF the opening were
soon made up. A few stocks were quite
weak The market later became very dull,
but the Vanderbllts came into prominence,
and the general list followed. The dullness
continued unrelieyed, but In tho last hour
prices reacted, and In many cases the gains

PUTTING IN THEIR BALLOTS.
A Large Contingent Sent East, wost,
and South to Vote.

A large number Of Democratic officials
went home to vote yesterday, the majority
of them, Of course, being bound for New
York. More than one Republican, how.
ever, who desired to vote allowed himself
to lie debarred from exercising that privi-
lege by such remarks as "You don't want
to go home now !" "This isn't your excur-
sion," &c.
The government printing Office was
worked for all 1t was worth; never, even in
the olden time, was the machine so effectu-
ally operated. Contributions were squeezed
out of every Democrat, and not a few
cowardly Republicans allowed themselves
to be bulldozed out of cash for the Demo-
cratic corruption fund. Several New York
Republicans were asked to go home aud
vote the Democratic ticket, and no stone
was left unturned by the cunning ward poll
tician in charge OF that establishment to
secure victory for the party which winks
at his open violations OF decency and
evasions Of party declarations.
